Too many variables - mileage and reliability are just two. Such as
are you bothered about appearance - are there many dings? Right colour?
your prejudices about make - I don't believe you haven't any :-)
if it is totally reliable, is it also nice to drive, and does it do everything you want it to?
will it depreciate quickly? Reasonable to insure?
Etc, etc. ...
This will depend how new the car is, but if possible buy from someone who knows about it, rather than some dealer who took it as part-ex or got it at auction.
High milage in a regularly and properly serviced car (especially a diesel) may be no disadvantage at all - in fact it makes the car a better bargain.
